Perfect Crime
Steelworker turned socialist
then Emma Goldman anarchist
disturbed by “malefactors of great wealth”
pretended he desired to shake
the president’s hand
but shot him in the belly
instead.
Seized at the scene
saved from crowd’s instant justice
quickly tried, electrocuted, pleas
of insanity denied by all
including Leon himself.
And Teddy Roosevelt, who hated
“malefactors of great wealth”
succeeded.
